Can you post a pic of you msi afterburner with it's stock settings.

I read in some forums that Core-i3 safe voltage for air cooled is 1.4v.Water Cooling is 1.6v
But it's Intel so giving it some extra juice it's ok I guess.I just want to know is it true that AMD proc can't withstand high temp because I'm planning to get another pc in the future and AMD price to performance is ok compared to Intel.

Sorry mod for asking a question out of the topic.

With the core clock and shader clock link together pull the core clock MHz slider to 900MHz.
The Memory clock set to 1080MHz.The Fan speed you can adjust for better cooling if you are playing game like running it at 60-100%.
Auto fan speed if you are just using it normally.Try this setting and see it's stability.Save profile.
Click apply overclocking at system startup. 

Hope this help

Thanks...This settings is considered almost maximum but you can try to increase 5MHz at a time and test it's stability.If it's not stable or game or system crash just reduce the MHz.
About damage maybe by high temp so make sure you watch your GPU temp because if to high system will crash or will have lower performance.

Happy overclocking.
Maybe now if you want you can OC your CPU

Put your hardware spec and maybe me and some people in here can teach you to OC your CPU and don't forget to update your mobo bios.

It will make your cpu hotter but if you OC just a bit maybe 5-10% temp will not increase much.But If you want to oc much higher you can get a better cpu cooler.I'm using CM212+ and I can OC my core-i3 530 2.93GHz to 4.4GHz and at max load using LinX temp does not go more than 85c.I also can OC till 4.5-4.6GHz but my cpu cooler can't cool it down temp reach 90c+ at full load using LinX.But for now I'm Just using stock settings and my cpu temp at idle is around 25-28c and ambient temp around 29c my case no side panel and when use stock intel cpu cooler temp around 30-35c.If you want to have better cooling and OC performance you can go for water cooling or cpu cooler like the noctua nh-d14 but this is kinda expensive.

The Heatsink size is 116x51x159mm.

So measure from your CPU base to your side panel must be 159mm

I now can't use my side panel because heatsink to tall and my case is just a normal AVF...

Size of mobo got difference but you just must measure the distance from the surface of the proc to the side panel if 16cm and still got a little room than you can install the cpu cooler.

It should be ok.As long got clearance.Mine is like sticking out 2mm.

What gap are you talking about? I have this cooler. Great improvement over stock cooler at load. But idling seems like not so big difference. Still in the 40s

The whole thing is 16cm tall with the pipe.As stated on the box and I measure my self.My temp did improve my cpu temp on load and idle.
With stock cooler idle 30-35c and load around 50-60c using linX and room temp around 29c.
CM212+ idle temp 25-30c mostly 27c and load using linX 38-44c using linX and room temp around 29c.
CPU Stock settings...

Why are you showing your cpu-z?

lol   I said my cpu temp at it's stock cpu setting and not oc because oc got a bit higher temp...
Planning to oc?What mobo you are using?Brand and model.

You can't oc an Intel budget motherboard
